Tiger daughter / Rebecca Lim.

Lim, Rebecca, (author.).

Summary:

"Wen Zhou is the first-generation daughter of Chinese immigrant parents. Her parents have high expectations for her - especially her father, whose strict rules leave her feeling trapped. Wen dreams of creating a future more satisfying than the one her parents want her to lead. Then she befriends a boy named Henry, who is also a first-generation child of immigrants. He is the smartest boy at school, despite struggling with English, and understands Wen in a way nobody else does. Both Wen and Henry dream of escaping their town, and together they come up with a plan to take an entrance exam for a selective school far from home. When tragedy strikes, it will take all of Wen's resilience to get herself and Henry through the storm." - provided by publisher
